What job did you/are doing on your journey to be a pilot?

Hi all, appreciate anyone who takes the time to read this.

I'm currently in waiting for my results from my Class One Medical due to it being deferred however I'm wanting to get the ball rolling for everything else ASAP. I'm based in the UK (North East to be precise) and I wanted to ask for those of you who are training and those who are already are pilots, what did you do/are doing in the process of building up to become a pilot?

I've worked in marketing for the past few years with a degree from University and only 24 years old. I'm currently in a limbo state where I don't know whether to continue forwarding myself in that field, or begin to look for jobs/careers that are based with airlines (I have a friend who was a dispatcher before she became a pilot). If anyone could please advise as to what's best and if they can recommend any possible schemes that run with airlines or if it's worth getting myself in the 'aviation field' with a job in the area.

Any input on this would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Dan
